IEF153I
jobname [procstep] stepname ddname [+ xxx] ALLOCATION FAILED - LIBRARY libname1 VOLUME ser NEEDED IN LIBRARY libname2

Explanation

The allocation request failed because the tape configuration database lists the requested volume as being in libname2, but the volume was found physically mounted in libname1.

In the message text:
jobname
The name of the job.
procstep
The name of the step in the cataloged procedure.
stepname
The name of the job step.
ddname
The name of the DD statement.
+ xxx
The relative position of a data set within a concatenation of data sets, including all data sets implicitly concatenated (through GDG ALL or OPTCD=B requests). See z/OS MVS JCL User's Guide for more information on GDG ALL or OPTCD=B requests when used within a set of concatenated data sets. The first data set of a concatenation would be +000, but the value +000 is never shown.
ser
The tape volume required by DD statement ddname
libname1
The name of the system-managed tape library where ser is mounted. If the system cannot determine the library that is associated with the volume, libname appears as “????????”.
libname2
The name of the system-managed tape library where ser is needed. If the system cannot determine the library that is associated with the volume, libname appears as “????????”.

System action

The system fails the job.

System programmer response

Ask the storage administrator to either physically move the tape volume to the correct library or update the tape configuration database to contain the library where the volume physically resides.
